Precondition
• Towards a full digital enterprise, all relevant
information is digital (see UDE: Unified Digital
Enterprise, see FInES Research Roadmap)
• Everything is documented, by people for people
• What is not documented does not exist ... !!!
• The enterprise knowledge is captured by a wealth
of document collections (preparatory of KB)
• Documents need to be semantically enriched
• Semantic annotation, tagging:
– document categories
– Knowledge categories (ontologies)

• A Framework for the support of the whole
Enterprise Innovation Lifecycle (EILC)

swarm in the whole enterprise, ecosystem

have the Innovation Rooms, where to meet periodically
to invent, propose, challenge, ...
• Innovation rooms, everywhere in the enterprise, open
to all

KIF Operations
• KIF operates according to BIVEE Innovation Waves
• There are no processes, but Innovation Knowledge
items
– To be achieved: IKO (Innovation Knowledge Objective)
– Already created: IKA (Innovation Knowledge Artefact)
– Dynamic evolution: IKO evolves into IKA that can be later
revised; IKO can be created / deleted in conditions require
• IKO / IKA are connected according to a dependency
network
• The final outcome: InnoBoK, is the union of all the
achieved IKA

Semantic Doc Management
• Semantic Descriptors of Docs are the missing
ring between humans and computers
• InnoDocs give account of entities, phenomena
and manifestations that make sense for
humans (tech experts, business people,
customers and suppliers, etc.)
• We need to make such knowledge fully
available to computers ...

Let’s go semantics with Ontologies
